Gender differences and organ specificity of 2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (PhIP)-induced mutagenesis were examined with the new gpt Delta transgenic mouse (T. Nohmi, M. Katoh, H. Suzuki, M. Matsui, M. Yamada, M. Watanabe, M. Suzuki, N. Horiya, O. Ueda, T. Shibuya, H. Ikeda, T. Sofuni, A new transgenic mouse mutagenesis test system using Spi(-) and 6-thioguanine selections (Environ. Mel. Mutagen. 28 (1996) 465-470). In this mouse model, two distinct selections are employed to efficiently detect different types of mutations, i.e 6-thioguanine (6-TG) selection for point mutations and Spi(-) selection for deletions, respectively. In both selections, the highest mutant frequencies were observed in colon, followed by in spleen and liver. No increases in mutations were observed in testis, brain and bone marrow in PhIP-treated male mice. No significant differences in 6-TG and Spi- mutant frequencies were observed in colon and liver between male and female treated mice. The correlation between PhIP-induced mutagenesis and carcinogenesis in colon is discussed. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
